Credits (As what I consider the hard stuff was actually done by other people): TheSmileyCoder for the solid awesome little VBS File, this basically gets around the limitation of not actually getting Access to load another Access Database. At the time I only ever needed one modification (A rarely issue affected two P4 machines with […]
Nearly every single Microsoft Access “database” I use has a proper database attached instead of using the internal Jet Engine, this means data is not actually stored in the Access “database” and I therefore call them Access Frontends. Compiling your Access front ends to ACCDE provides a compiled copy of your Access Front End. I […]
I needed to run a scheduled batch job and kill it off after a certain amount of time, this was because the program would run what it needed and then run as normal (If it exists then there is no reason to use start or timeout). As it actually ran as a service I didn’t […]
We had a number of nsf files given to us by a company we had purchased, however they utilised Shared Mails and the resulting Notes Files contained lots of missing attachments. A process of de-linking needed to be run to basically tell Domino to copy shared items back to the nsf file and not to […]
A number of the default “apps” that Microsoft provide tend to get on my nerves, as I have Skype and Office already installed I was annoyed to see the “Get Skype” and “Get Office” were listed. I tweak the below on all new machines as some members of my family do have a Windows Phone […]
The following allows you to work out the current time on the Unix Environment. The Datediff function is used to work out the number of seconds between 01/01/1970 and the current date. I have used this against data which is stored and as Unix time.

The server.id can be setup to have a password. This can cause problems on Windows where on Windows 2003 the Domino server starts, however it expects a password. This caused me the issue of getting stuck when logging in. Although passwords are recommended I tend to rely on the security of the server (Ensuring only […]
This Outlook 2010 VBA code was used to impose a time when emails could not be sent and were instead delayed until the next work day. This was put together (Credits go to key parts of this VBA are in the actual code) because the Managing Director where I work realised he was making people […]
Note: I can’t find who to credit with this, I believe it was the IBM Notes forum but I never took a URL. When IBM Notes 8 is installed mailto links will still launch the Standard Client. For machines which you want to launch the Standard Client the registry needs to be amended Open the […]
I had an issue where corruption on local Lotus Notes Database views resulted in views such as the Inbox showing [Replication or Save Conflict] instead of actual emails. For me this occurred during migrating nsf files to the latest version (Version 6.x to Version 8.x) on Lotus Domino (Domino was already version 8.0.1 however we […]
